1995 Blue Performer: Some Assembly Required
« on: February 23, 2013, 11:52:04 AM »
So I picked up the EO Blue SS Performer.  Here's a few shots of my new toy:

It did not look too bad before cleaning it up:


The owners manual was included.  I had to install the 3 stainless tool hooks.



Inside was not too bad.  I cleaned most of up.  Still could work on the top edge.


Unfortunately, there are a few chips on the lid's edge.


I have been really wanting a blue Weber.  Not a bad deal for $60.00.  It did include the char baskets and a cover.  You can tell it has been under the cover most of it's life.

That's a fantastic SS! And I think the caster wheels are a PITA, I'd rather have this style frame anyway. I'm hoping to score another one for myself this year.

I've always had gas...  And now a bunch of kettles because of this place.  Thanks!

Great looking grill.  Better price.  Is it a non gas assist model.  Assuming so since there are no casters up front?
